Syracuse thinks they are getting Griffiths I take that as a good sign

Jim boeheim so forgiving of his frosh , doesn’t sell them out in the press or anything like that.Unless he's scared off by a lack of available playing time.
Unless your last name is Boeheim. Then he'll love you unconditionally. You can even punch an opponent in the stomach and he'll make excuses for you.Jim boeheim so forgiving of his frosh , doesn’t sell them out in the press or anything like that.
Are we in a good spot, because these guys have him as virtually locked up by Kentucky. Any chance we can swoop in and get him?Forgot about edwards. My bad. Felt like I was missing somebody. Definitely not giving up, seems like we’re in a good spot.

He still has yet to take his official visit here, which will come over the summer or fall. This is when the staff typically closes and has a great track record of doing such. He has visited campus multiple times and was at the Xavier win. Staff has a good relationship with his AAU program and with the Imhotep athletic director. He has already taken an official visit to Kentucky and even if we do have ground to cover, we certainly shouldn’t be ruled out. Not saying he’s a lock to come here, but I’ll take our chances.Are we in a good spot, because these guys have him as virtually locked up by Kentucky. Any chance we can swoop in and get him?
I'm aware of all that - my question is specific to this one player. For a site to have it pegged at 95%, it would seem they've got a really good take on his recruitment and thoughts.Recruiting the level of talent we want consistently is always going to be a battle. We aren't searching for under-the-radar gems as much any more. We're going against other big-time, P5 programs for the best players in the country.
It would be great if we can turn this into a commit. He really seemed to like his visit for the Xavier game and certainly is tight with Diggins, Castle is working him, etc., I just find it interesting they've got him as 95% Kentucky at this point. I could see this sort of projection for a player of lesser notoriety/one that none of their people have reached out to, but in this case it's a prominent player that you'd think they'd have an accurate read on to peg it so high. We shall see.He still has yet to take his official visit here, which will come over the summer or fall. This is when the staff typically closes and has a great track record of doing such.

I didn’t realize he was related to Jimmy BSyracuse thinks they are getting Griffiths I take that as a good sign

Somewhat moot as Michigan's best bet is to re-stock quickly via the portal. Plus, he's staying more local.![]()
Five-Star Recruit Called A 'Must Get' For Michigan
On’s Jamie Shaw shared some thoughts on several 2023 basketball recruits and called five-star forward Gavin Griffiths, the No. 15 player in the class, a must get for the Wolverines. Michigan needs shooting. Griffiths is two years out, but this season’s Wolverines have been below the 150 mark in...www.diehardsport.com

-> “Right now, I am hearing the most from Providence, Duke, UConn, Arkansas, Marquette,” Bol Bowen said. “There are a lot of schools reaching out, but I am focused on getting better for AAU. I have been on unofficial visits to UConn and Providence, but I will start my official visit process soon. I will look to set an official with Providence. I would like to visit Duke as well.” <-
UConn: “I was at the UConn and Rutgers game this weekend, it was my first time at Campbell, and it was their senior night. It was a great atmosphere. It is forty minutes away, so playing for my hometown would be pretty cool. They think their style fits how I play, the uptempo. Coach (Danny) Hurley says he is a defensive-oriented coach, and he thinks he can work with me on that and get me ready moving forward.”
How so?Prepare for women's sports to be "sexed up"
